Wait, do normie phone, just, instantly open an untrusted website? The camera on LineageOS has a "scan" mode where it shows the data of scanned QR codes before you make an action.

Yup, modern security at its finest. Normie's don't stand a chance.

I wish email clients would do something similar, especially for Formatted links.

Open up a big popup that shows the full sender address, the full link, and underline/color any numbers so its clear AMAZ0N.com is b.s.

FairEmail for Android shows a popup with the actual link.

They show you a tiny pop up with some of the URL. Not all of it. You click that and it goes right to it.
